Li Wannian, once a post-90s generation, was deeply influenced by various comics and animations since childhood, so he fell in love with painting at a very young age.

With his talent and diligence, after graduating from high school, he went to study abroad in Neon and studied comics wholeheartedly.

However, when he came to Neon, he found that the comics industry in Neon was more competitive than he imagined!

On the hot streets of Dong..., eight out of ten people were comics!

The other two wanted to be voice actors!

Therefore, Li Wannian had no competitiveness.

His painting skills were very good, but he lacked creativity.

In the final analysis, the core of comics is still the story, and what Li Wannian lacked was a good story.

Therefore, with his level, he would not be able to serialize his works in "Weekly Shonen Jump" even if he worked hard for another ten years.

As the saying goes, comics ruin your life, and anime makes you poor for three generations!

With the comics industry not working, Li Wannian had no choice but to join Toei Animation after graduation and became an art designer.

After nearly ten years of hard work, he finally went from being an art designer to an original artist, and then from an original artist to the director of one episode of "One Piece".

Seeing that the hard work had paid off, he almost became a liver emperor in order to do this episode well, and almost lived in the office all day long.

In the end, when he saw that this episode of animation that took a lot of effort was about to be completed, he died suddenly.

Then, he came to Hong Kong Island in 1975 and became a standard post-60s.

It's really 6 times over!

Although Hong Kong Island in the 1960s and 1970s was not beautiful, and the material life was far inferior to that in the 21st century, fortunately, Li Wannian's family was harmonious and beautiful, so he didn't have a hard time.

I didn't expect that he, a time traveler, didn't have parents to offer sacrifices to the gods. God really favored him alone!

Father Li Chongjun came to Hong Kong Island alone in the 1950s and worked hard for 20 years. Although he was uneducated, he became a small boss with his courage and carefulness. He not only married a wife, but also gave birth to four children. He supported a family of six in Hong Kong Island, where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

Now his business has encountered difficulties, and Li Wannian happened to be able to help. How could he not help?

It happened that after I traveled through time, my memory of my previous life was extremely clear. Every line of the comics I had read, every plot of the anime I had watched, every line of the anime songs I had listened to, and every line of lyrics were so unforgettable. Bar Book 69 New

Therefore, Li Wannian easily drew the first ten episodes of the comic "Death God" without any effort.

When choosing comics, Li Wannian also chose for a long time.

In order to help his father make money, those niche and heavy-tasting masterpieces must be excluded. The first choice is naturally Dragon Ball plus the three major migrant workers' comics.

However, Dragon Ball was not eye-catching enough in the early stage, Naruto was not suitable for the local environment, and One Piece had a strange style. After thinking about it, Li Wannian finally chose Bleach.

The style is dazzling, the characters are beautiful, and the fighting is exciting, which can catch the readers' attention in the early stage.

Using this comic to save the printing factory is not enough, but it is simply killing a chicken with a butcher knife!

In this way, under the gaze of Li Wannian and Li Chongjun, He Bo turned the first page of the paper:

Hong Kong Island, 2:23 in the morning, Friday.

"Are you around here?"

"Indeed... I can feel a strong fluctuation!"

The picture shows a rooftop in the night, and suddenly a black figure flashes.

The black clothes make it impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman, and they blend into the night.

Then the camera turned, the sky became brighter, and a bad boy in a school uniform kicked a gangster away with one foot.

At the same time, his introduction appeared next to him:

Kuro Ichigo, 15 years old

Hair and eye color, orange

Pupil color, brown

Occupation: high school student

Then we saw this boy named Kuro Ichigo, with his hands in his pockets and his feet stepping on gangsters.

"The painting is good, the storyboard is experienced, the composition is reasonable, and the character image is also excellent, but it just has a bit of neon flavor!" After reading only two pages, He Bo has already felt the power of this comic.

Hearing this, Li Wannian nodded silently in his heart. This old man is really good.

"However, such efficient gangster fighting is certainly cool, but it is still a bit abrupt without a clue!"

However, before He Bo finished his evaluation, the next picture explained that it turned out that a vase used for sacrifice was kicked over by them.

That's why Kuro Ichigo asked them to apologize.

Slap in the face!

"There is a reason, but it's too stiff. Such a plot is difficult to arouse readers' empathy!"

Before He Bo finished speaking in his heart, a girl with half of her face covered in blood floated in the air.

The caption on the side introduces the protagonist again:

Special skill: can see ghosts!

Another slap in the face!

"This girl is actually a ghost? The protagonist can see ghosts? No wonder the name of the work is "Death"!"

He Bo was shocked again when he saw this. This is a unique perspective.

As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway.

This animation introduces the protagonist's appearance, and only uses 4 pages to explain a lot of information.

At the same time, whether it is the layout, storyboard or dialogue, everything reveals one word: professional!

Who is this general? How can he be so powerful?

He Boan suppressed his curiosity and continued to read on:

Only one piece of paper, Kuro Ichigo drove away the gangsters, comforted the little girl ghost, and completed the "saving cat" behavior that increased the reader's empathy with the protagonist.

He said goodbye to the little girl ghost at dusk, and then there was another sharp camera switch, and a plaque called "Kuro's Clinic" appeared.

At the same time, it was explained in a digression that this was the clinic opened by Kuro Ichigo's family, and it was also possible that this was the reason why he could see ghosts since he was a child.

Then the next picture, just after returning home, Kuro Ichigo was suddenly attacked.

Just when He Bo was worried and thought something big was going to happen, he found out that this person was Kuro Ichigo's father.

Through the explanation in the following text, He Bo realized that the reason his father beat Kuro Ichigo was because he came home late.

Seeing this, He Bo looked up at Li Chongjun and thought: I'm afraid this paragraph is from life?

Seeing He Bo looking at him, Li Chongjun was full of question marks, and he didn't know that he was taking the blame.

He Bo continued to read the comics: During the fight, Ichigo's family background was also explained. His mother died early, and he had a father and two sisters.

After the quarrel, Ichigo returned to his room without even eating. At this time, a black butterfly flew into the room and attracted Ichigo's attention.

Following the butterfly, he found a girl wearing a black ancient costume and an ancient sword on her waist appeared on the desk in Ichigo's bedroom.

It was the mysterious man in black at the beginning of the comics, the god of death Lu Qia.

In order to localize "Bleach", Li Wannian naturally could not let the god of death wear a kimono.

The god of death costume he designed borrowed from the future improved version of Hanfu, with wide sleeves, thin waist, and fit the body shape and elegant and agile.

He Bo had never seen Hanfu like this before, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Although it was black, the style was very novel and very beautiful!

"Very close..."

"Close...close to your head, are you an idiot?"

The plot went in a direction that He Bo had never expected. Ichigo kicked the beautiful Lukia away.

"Can you see me?" Lukia was surprised.

Why? Why can't I guess the plot?

Do young people nowadays think so fast?

For a moment, He Bo even began to doubt himself!

However, He Bo had to admit that such a dramatic acquaintance and such a plot development would be an important scene in this comic!

Then, the two of them knew each other.

Lukia told Ichigo that she was a god of death, but Ichigo didn't believe it at all, so Lukia personally performed ghost arts and soul burial on him, and then explained the world view through Lukia's funny paintings.

The whole scene was both relaxed and funny, and the amount of information was huge, which could be said to be full of content.

It also made He Bo very impressed by the imagination of this comic, which actually built a very reasonable world!

Then Ichigo's family was attacked by a Hollow.

During the attack, Lukia was injured. Seeing the critical moment, she helped Ichigo become a Death God in order to defeat the Hollow.

In this way, in the crisis, a yellow-haired Death God appeared in the smoke.

Then he used the exaggerated and handsome sword on his back, swung the sword, and killed the Hollow in one second.

So, on the last page of this episode, the introduction of Ichigo appeared again:

Black Ichigo, fifteen years old

Hair and eye color, orange

Pupil color, brown

Occupation: high school student, Death God!

So far, it is only the first episode, but after reading it, He Bo was silent and his expression was extremely solemn.

"Who painted this outstanding style, clean shots, and a narrative rhythm that is not dragged out at all? Is there such a person in Hong Kong Island?"

Li Chongjun, who was standing by, saw it and quickly comforted him: "Old He, this is just a casual painting by Nianzai. Don't mind if it's not good!"

"What? He painted it?" Hearing this, Uncle He suddenly became uneasy, his eyes opened like a pair of copper bells, and he was so surprised that he seemed to want to eat Li Chongjun.

"Uh, yes, is there any problem?"

Li Chongjun also noticed that Uncle He was not right, and there was a little expectation in his uneasiness.

"How old is he?" Uncle He looked at Li Chongjun with an extremely serious expression.

"He is ten...how old are you?" Li Chongjun couldn't answer for a while, and turned to look at Li Wannian.

"..." Li Wannian was speechless for a while, worthy of being my stupid father!

"I'm 13 years old!"

"Is it this old? Then you are in junior high school?" Li Chongjun was surprised.

"Hahahaha..."

But at this moment, Uncle He laughed loudly, scaring the father and son.

"What happened to him?"

"I don't know!"

Both of them were very confused, and saw Uncle He taking a deep breath, laughing loudly, and closing his eyes and muttering to himself as if he had accepted his fate, as if he was possessed by a demon.

"There are geniuses in this world!"

In just a few seconds, he changed several expressions in succession, which made Li Wannian admire him sincerely: I didn't realize that this old man is also an acting school!
